Nutrition

The American Dietetics Association and the American Heart Association recommend a diet that is low in fat, high in carbohydrates, and moderate in protein. In concrete terms, you should be getting 30% or less of your calories from fat, 50-60% from carbohydrates, and 15-20% from protein. Have you ever wondered how your daily diet compares to these standards? Here are some websites where you can determine your daily calorie needs and analyze your diet to see just how healthy you are! In addition, we have listed some websites that you may find useful in answering some of your questions about nutrition, and anything from eating disorders to vegetarianism.
